Today, when the veterinarian Xiaoming was reading the post, he accidentally saw such a one: I am getting married, and the in-laws do not like cats, so they can only put the cats in their mother's house, especially worried that when they come back a month later, the cats do not know themselves, what to do?
In fact, there are many shovelers who have such doubts, go out to school or work, and are not at home for a long time, so can the cat still remember himself? Veterinarian Xiaoming wants to say that you really don't know anything about the memory of cats!
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="3" > sparrow is small and complete </h1>
Although the cat's head is very small, accounting for only nine percent of the body weight ratio, the brain structure is very similar to that of humans, so in the memory, it is naturally not too bad. Survey studies have shown that in adulthood, cats can reach the IQ of 2-3 years old humans, although cats may not be as well trained as dogs, but their memory is very long.
If compared with dogs, the short-term memory of cats can even exceed Wang's 200 times. If the dog is not intensively trained, the short-term memory of the dog is only about 5 minutes, while the short-term memory of the cat can reach 16 hours.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="6" > the stage when the cat has the strongest memory </h1>
Cats have a short life, probably only a dozen years, and the best stage of their memory is about 2 to 7 weeks, which is a golden memory, so in this time period of the cat, adopting them and cultivating feelings with them is the easiest for them to remember themselves.
Veterinarian Xiaoming once saw a case on the Internet, the owner has kept a cat since childhood, after raising a year the owner went abroad, until 3 years after leaving, they did not meet again, at first the owner thought that the cat would not know himself again, but when the owner took out his favorite food to feed it, the cat sniffed a few times and remembered the shoveler. Therefore, it is best to seize the golden period of memory to keep a cat, so as not to miss it and cultivate feelings.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="9" > the cat has only 21 days of memory? Pure rumors </h1>
Many cats never come back after leaving home, which is why such remarks come out. The actual situation is that some cats are really reluctant to come back after running away from home, but not because their memory is only 21 days, some cats are born with sexual freedom, so they naturally do not want to return home after leaving; and some cats choose to leave home because they know that they are sick and their lives are short; and some cats are because they are picked up, mistakenly think that they are stray cats, and take home for adoption.
However, the memory of cats will indeed decline, take us humans, after getting old, some old people will get Alzheimer's disease, let alone cats?
When cats are old, they are also likely to suffer from Alzheimer's disease, they will defecate on the ground, forget how to use the cat litter box, and even forget the owner. Because their brains have declined by this time, but not because their memory is not good.
When the owner leaves the cat for a long time, don't worry about the cat will forget about himself, just need to spend more time to accompany them, gradually become familiar with it, and prepare some of the cat's usual favorite food. In addition, the cat's life is very short, and I hope that the shoveler will accompany them more.
